Today I started another sideplot, was a lot of fun because the setting allows for some nice experimentation and, failing to do that, I can continue to rip off Ender’s game. Got some good example of gun porn for it too, which made me notice my tendency of going on and on about subjects mid-narrative is alive and well. Also, got some “Last Battle” scene lines right: I had an idea of how I wanted them to go, but this is it.

Managed to meet the goal. Didn’t go too far from it at the request of my loved one and it was for the best; even though I knew I could write a little more, there’s no need to rush it at first. The fact remains I was able to get a solid set-up down and that’s more than I can say I did when not practicing. Teach your kid to walk slow and steady before he can run, yadda yadda.

So yeah, apparently I got a full time job. Which I already have mixed feelings about because of its conditions. Still, need the money so I gotta give it a shot even if it means throwing NaNoWriMo out the window. Remember when something exactly like this happened last year?

After the traumatic events of the Slaughter Festival and the return of an old acquaintance with a craving for vengeance, will Koukishin Shinzou get the peaceful days he desperately wanted in the first place or was the whole experience just proof he is unfit for that kind of life? What awaits Kouma Yon after her manipulation being discovered and the situation seems to go deeper than initially assumed? What will happen to Reikoku-sensei, and why does her backup plan terrify Shin-tsu so much? How did the unusual events of that day affect Megumi? Will Akane come to terms with her insecurities and confess her love before it’s too late? What led Rin to considering breaking the band up? What is this town’s secret? What is Mystery? Who is Shiina Ryo?
A literary tale of creation, destruction and reconstruction comes to its conclusion. More characters! More sideplots! References! Casinos! Otaku culture! Psychological drama! Audio engineering! Secrets! Time travel! Metaphysics! Cooking! World War II! Gravity not working properly!

The ridiculously vague synopsis is there and Chiri’s face explains it very well. I’m not going to count the words I have already written, which would be technically “cheating”: in the following month, I really plan on writing 50k words and hopefully wrap the story up while doing so.

Prologue plus one micro-chapter of the actual novel up, the next one is bound to give me trouble uploading because it’s a “micro chapter” with the size of the previous ones. So yeah, I never, ever get a break.

Also, delicious stories by fellow authors Cyul and Gilles and a Bones-guy spin-off. He even has a name now!

Since I’m a NEET with no stamina, it took me the whole day to do this. Hope you enjoy it and I intend on doing releases at least weekly, so this should be fun. Not as fun as Breaking Bad’s last season, of which I still need to watch the current episode but got spoiled to death by everyone. Mike-kun ;_;

The OST is coming along nicely, though: especially regarding the Saris recordings. I’m doing Rin’s band all on my own (that guitar collaboration didn’t go too well), but it’s turning out to be much better than expected and by that I mean it’s definitely technical and shreddy enough while being realistic. Akane is the blastbeat queen, supreme overlord of thrash-infused blackened djent: dem drums, man. Dem. Drums. Oh and the…
